Dolichoctis rotundata ( Schmidt-Göbel, 1846 ) This species has historically been treated as a junior synonym of Dolichoctis striata Schmidt-Göbel, 1846 , though its specific status has been reinstated (Martin Baehr pers. comm.). Identification was determined by Dr. Martin Baehr from specimens. Material : 1 ex. W.T., 11.iii.09 on tree; 1 ex. Hong kong , Mui Wo, Wo Tin, 15.iii.08 , many under bark of Lychee tree; 1 ex. W.T., 14.vi.08 on railings; 1 ex. Hong Kong , Ng Tung Chai, 18.vi.11 ; 1 ex. Hong Kong , Tai Po Kau, 29.vi. 10 in tree; 1 ex. Hong Kong , Mui Wo, 23.xi.10 ; 1 ex. Hong kong , Mui Wo, Silvermine waterfall, 14.xii.08 ; 1 ex. Hong kong , Mui Wo, Silvermine waterfall, 18.xii.08 . Biology : Nocturnal and arboreal on the trunks of trees and similar structures.
